Sample Sentences
所以,遇到任何一个人都比老Q正派,比小咪热情,比小F殷勤,最好是即便劈头问候其母亲,也不生气不回嘴更不哭,最好像家里哄孩子用的iPad,
so whoever you meet will be more decent than Old Q, more enthusiastic than Xiaomi, and more hospitable than Small F. Even when you insult the desk lady's mother, she is not angry, she doesn't talk back, she doesn't cry, it's like using an iPad at home to coax children.
你呢,时而对她献殷勤,帮她买买早餐,制造点小浪漫,时而对她不理不睬,等到哪天她想跟你聊天的时候,你就要回不回的。
So what you've got to do is, be really attentive to her sometimes, like buying her breakfast and creating a little bit of romance, and then ignore her completely at other times, until the day she wants to chat to you and then act like you're reluctant to talk to her.
